Adelisa⁸⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: M Harley| T: K P De Foy| OR: 61| D

13/8

Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 12/1) 85 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Ronald O'Leary and she's one to monitor closely in the betting.

Form: 099005

Opticality¹⁷⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Hunt| OR: 58

11/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 6 in minor event at Chelmsford City (10f, 11/2) when last seen 174 days ago. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that she'll improve now handicapping back over a mile.

Form: 44-5

Forbearing^p¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: J F Egan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 58

33/1

Latest win at Southwell in April. Last of 8 in handicap (8/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 18 days ago. Could be a threat if allowed a soft lead, but his profile is too up-and-down for comfort.

Form: 010108

Adelisa (13/8), Just Amber (9/2), Boasty (5/1), Good Humor (7/1), Helluvaboy (9/1), Opticality (11/1), Makambe (16/1), Fitzrovia (25/1), Forbearing (33/1), History Writer (50/1)

It will be interesting to see which way Irish import ADELISA goes in the betting on debut for new connections. She wasn't beaten too far at Dundalk on her final start for Ronald O'Leary when last seen in April, and will have every chance off this reduced mark if the change of scenery has had a positive effect. Boasty arrives here in good form, which is more than can be said for many of his rivals, and he is feared most. Opticality is worth a second look back at this trip on her handicap debut.
